These days our packaging options are many - which is the best for you and your customers?As Summer draws to a close and the season's blossoms begin to fade, a beekeeper's thoughts naturally turn to harvesting and bottling the year's honey crop.Every beekeeper who harvests honey will have to decide what type of container they will use to package their honey. This decision will be based largely upon the intended market for the honey, however other considerations such as the type of honey to be bottled, container cost, and shipping weight are also important. While honey tins were often used in the old days, metal containers can corrode and are seldom used today with the exception of 55-gallon drums used by large-scale operations. Todays metal drums are coated on the inside with a food-grade coating to prevent the metal from reacting with the honey.
